Sadly you can't teach an old dog new tricks 🤷‍♀

@@theloonytubes So true. I've read so many stories about old folks that refuse to listen that they are on a killing diet. They tell their kids, "mind your own business", or something ten times worse.

Thank you 🙏 for watching the video and leaving a comment.

Well even meat turns into glucose The brain runs on glucose. Simple carbs are not healthy but whole grain carbs are healthy.

Thank you for sharing 🙏 your perspective

You're welcome

Hi Wayne! Kudos to you for taking charge of your health! According to the USDA, daily protein requirements vary depending on height, weight, gender, and activity level. They have an online calculator that you can use to calculate your RDA for protein: www.nal.usda.gov/human-nutrition-and-food-safety/dri-calculator It's critical to choose sources of protein that are low in saturated fat. Check food labels or use the USDA FoodData Central: fdc.nal.usda.gov/ I urge you to avoid high-protein diets. As I mention in the video, high-protein diets stress the kidneys. You may find it helpful to study the Diabetes Plate method, which relies on relative ratios of different foods: www.diabetesfoodhub.org/articles/what-is-the-diabetes-plate-method.html#:~:text=The%20Diabetes%20Plate%20Method%20is,you%20need%20is%20a%20plate! Finally, while the internet can be a source of helpful information it is no substitute for consultation with your doctor. Thank you for watching and commenting. I hope this information was helpful. Best wishes on your health journey! I'm rooting for you!!

Thanks so much for watching and commenting 🙏 Could you please tell me more about what you mean by carnivore diet? Perhaps direct me to the promotion you mentioned? One point I want to make is that the details matter. For example, a vegan could eat lots of fresh produce and ancient grains or a vegan could eat lots of processed bakery items and potato chips. Both approaches would be vegan but the healthfulness varies greatly.

@@intendwell The carnivore diet Isa diet that you only eat red meat. I can't possibly see how this is healthy.

Hi Robbie, Thanks for clarifying. As I mention in the video, the popularity of low-carb / high-protein diets resurge periodically. The Carnivore Diet appears to be the latest iteration. Lots of people seem to thrive on these eating plans--losing stubborn weight, gaining energy, eliminating cranky digestive issues. Some of that success may be attributable to how they were eating before going low-carb. For example, if they were consuming lots of simple sugars then a low-carb carnivore diet could be an improvement. I agree that restricting oneself to just eating meat seems counterintuitive but scientific knowledge is ever expanding so I try to stay receptive to new data. That said, the most extensive studies I can find are 12-months duration so the long-term effects of low-carb diets needs to be researched further. Much relies on the implementation details - whether people are choosing lean meats or processed meats like bacon and salami (which are classified as a group 1 carcinogen). As I mention in the video, I know people who suffered adverse effects when they tried low-carb. Considering all the nutritional research that has been conducted, I think if there was one eating plan that worked for every single person we would have discovered it by now. Personally, I have not eaten meat or dairy for years and my health is the best it has ever been. I think we each need to find what works best for us individually.

​@intendwell The confusion is Im a vegan all my life with 0 health issues . I run marathons and triathlons. I climb mointains Im 64 and feel this works for me. I dont understand meat eaters claiming vegan diet is unhealthy and will make you sick. Sounds like meat industry propaganda . Im not sure

The carnivore diet is awesome. Do your research and watch all the carnivore diet channels and testimonials on youtube.

Thanks so much for watching and making time to leave a comment. I wish dietary advice could be simple and universal but my 25 years experience as a certified Health Coach has shown otherwise. What works great for one person may not work at all for someone else. Since an apple has about 14-15 grams of carbohydrate according to the USDA, an eating plan with only 20 grams of carbohydrate could be difficult to sustain long-term. As noted in the cited research, one of the benefits of meal sequencing is the high rate of compliance compared to restrictive eating plans. Also, although the blood glucose and insulin curves are consistent for most foods, some low-carb / high-protein foods (such as beef) can spike insulin without raising glucose although researchers still aren't sure why. I'm glad that you found an eating plan that works for you. I would be interested to know how you divide your daily caloric intake across carbs, fats, and protein. Since I am always mindful of citing research from reputable sources (even though our knowledge is still evolving), I would appreciate if you would share your sources. btw the video is 16 minutes long, not 50 as you mentioned

@@intendwell _"I wish dietary advice could be simple and universal but my 25 years experience as a certified Health Coach has shown otherwise. What works great for one person may not work at all for someone else."_ Let me know when you find a human whose blood glucose doesn't rise in response to dietary carbohydrates. Or someone whose insulin doesn't respond to increased blood glucose. _Since an apple has about 14-15 grams of carbohydrate according to the USDA, an eating plan with only 20 grams of carbohydrate could be difficult to sustain long-term._ Only people who are chemically addicted to dietary carbohydrates or those who have little control of types of food in the house (teens) have difficulty staying on a 20g carb limit. For the carb addicts, going on a zero-carb diet for 90 days will eliminate the cravings associated with carb addiction. It actually only takes about two weeks to go through the withdrawals, but the 90 day protocol allows for establishing new habits. Once the cravings are dealt with, it becomes very easy to stick to it. _”As noted in the cited research, one of the benefits of meal sequencing is the high rate of compliance compared to restrictive eating plans.”_ Very low carb diets aren't restrictive in the same way that not doing crystal method is not rrestriction In other words, telling someone who is suffering from alcohol toxicity to stop drinking alcohol may be technically restrictive, but its not like the restriction is on something that is bringing them good health. Same with dietary carbohydrates. Telling someone who is suffering from glucose toxicity to cut back on dietary glucose intake is technically a restriction, but it is not restricting you from something that is good for you. Also, although the blood glucose and insulin curves are consistent for most foods, some low-carb / high-protein foods (such as beef) can spike insulin without raising glucose although researchers still aren't sure why. Protein has a moderate insulinogenic effect compared to glucose. But it doesn't cause a "spike" because it is slower to release than glucose. Maybe if you're doing a hotdog-eating contest or something over-the-top like that. _”I'm glad that you found an eating plan that works for you. I would be interested to know how you divide your daily caloric intake across carbs, fats, and protein.”_ Calories are a measurement of heat energy resulting from combusting something in a bomb calorimeter. Because that has nothing to do with human biology, health, or nutrition, I don't include calories in any of my health considerations or choices. And, because I eat less than 10g carbs/day, I don't track any macros at all - I eat whenever I am hungry and eat until I am unmistakably full. That usually ends up being two or three meals per day; at least 2lbs of meat, 3 eggs, and a serving of some vegetable. All cooked in butter. The other day all I ate was two 4-patty, 4 cheese burgers from In-N-Out (no buns or sugary sauces). _Since I am always mindful of citing research from reputable sources (even though our knowledge is still evolving), I would appreciate if you would share your sources._ Sources for what?

Thank you 🙏 That’s very sweet 🙂

Thank you for watching and commenting! 💐

Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it 🙏

Thank you for watching and commenting. The main takeaway of this video is to encourage consumption of high-fiber, minimally processed foods (such as fresh fruit) to minimize glucose and insulin spikes, which - if I am understanding your comment - is consistent with your perspective. I did not mention the different types of sugar (glucose, fructose and sucrose) since it was not germane. The effect of fructose on blood sugar and insulin is moot since all three types of sugars are in an orange (4.19 grams sucrose, 2.02 grams glucose, and 2.36 grams fructose) and orange juice according to the USDA. fdc.nal.usda.gov/fdc-app.html#/food-details/746771/nutrients All three types of sugar are also in watermelon according to 2010 article in the Journal of Plant Physiology although the amount varies by species. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20036442/#:~:text=Sugar composition in watermelon, as,includes sucrose, fructose and glucose Hope that addresses your concern. Apologies if I misunderstood your point.

Good for you, my friend! I remember how hard it was when I first started drinking my coffee black but now I don't want it any other way. Thank you so much for watching and making time to leave a comment. I appreciate it!

Hi Ariarna. Thank you for watching and commenting. Every morning I draw a word at random and use it to suggest an intention for the day. You are invited to set your own intention either using the word I picked or your own word. The purpose is to be more intentional about life every day. Hope you will join me every morning!

Omg thx for commenting your the best but what do you mean about the word thing

I pick the peace please

You are welcome 🙏 I post a new intention word video every morning at 6 AM Eastern. If you watch again tomorrow, I think it will make more sense. 🙂

Thank you for watching and commenting. 🙏You are correct that fruit is sugary but unlike most processed foods containing sugar, raw fruit contains fiber. The fiber slows the conversion of sugar into glucose limiting the insulin spike associated with most sugary foods. I’m curious (if you don’t mind sharing) whether you have tried ancient grains like quinoa, chia seeds and oatmeal?

Thanks for watching and commenting! You are always free to create your own intention for the day if the word from the bowl is not applicable. Take care ☮️

Thank you for watching 🙏 I agree. It’s astonishing to consider how convinced we are of the nutritional necessity of milk that we are willing to add sugar to coax children to drink it. 🤦‍♀️

@@intendwell I always tried to hold my nose while drinking

Thanks for sharing your experience 🙏 May it inspire others ♥️

Thank you so much 🙏!!

Hi, Julie! This Short is from February 28. Entries were due end of the month (February 29) and I drew a winner on March 1 in a video that was shared just with people who had entered the drawing. I am so sorry that you didn’t find my channel a few days sooner ☹️

Hi Julie, I’m so sorry you have been unwell for so long. The vibration of our thoughts and emotions can have a profound impact on our overall health including our immune system. Learning how to soothe our inner critic is a journey. While I have not silenced my inner critic, I have learned to stop listening when the message doesn’t serve my best interests. Let me know if you have questions. Feel better soon 💐

No, Ron but I can see why you might think that LOL The bowl I use to hold the intention cards has a lovely decorative edge.

@@intendwell thank you is it made of wood ?

@@ronaldhaugen5967 I think it’s ceramic. My daughter and SIL bought it at an art market.

I ground after my daily yoga practice while I am still on my mat. Making grounding a step in my routine helps me remember to do it 👍❤

Totally agree, Michael! Healing Touch is offered in many hospitals and taught in nursing schools. I am confident that someday it will be widely available to people who need it. I am writing a book to teach people how to use energy healing techniques on themselves because I believe that energetic self-care should be as routine as taking a shower and brushing our teeth.

Thank you so much!

Welcome! I am glad that you are here. We are all on a journey of perpetual learning. Looking forward to traveling together!

Thank you, Michael. Learning how important our focus is has helped me, too. I used to direct all my attention to the gaps between how things were and how I wanted them to be. I was missing so much of what was going right in my life. Now I understand that whatever receives my focus magnifies.

Right?! My daughter and SIL gave it to me. They got it from a local maker. Thank you for watching and commenting 🙏

this is an afwul comment, she’s just helping us and giving us some advice, what’s wrong with that? Love your video and keep it going, Carolyn!

Thanks 🙏 so much for the support ❤️

Hi 👋 Bilbo! Nice to meet another Tolkien fan! Thanks 🙏 for not comparing me to an orc 😆

Hi 👋 Michael! Apologies for the delayed response. That’s a great suggestion ♥️ I will add it to the bowl 🙏

Thank you for the question. The concept that everything is energy originated with Einstein. Scientists used to believe that the atom was the smallest particle of matter but now we know at its core an atom is pure energy. So, if everything is energy that includes our thoughts and emotions. Research on the human bio-field is ongoing but I am including links to a few articles. A paper scheduled to publish next month will establish much needed protocols for future research on bio-field therapies. One thing to keep in mind is that scientific research can be expensive and funding is more readily available when there is likely to be a positive ROI. Please let me know if this satisfies your question.

Yes - she's gray and white vs black and white but I think the pattern classifies as tuxedo 😸

I love that! Reminds me of the saying. “If you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours.” 😀
